Characterizations of the Exponential Distribution
نویسنده
چکیده
In this note two characterizations of the exponential distribution are discussed, based on a generalization of the lack of memory property. These results were motivated by the notion of "relevation of distributions" introduced by Krakowski (1973).

On Burr III-Inverse Weibull Distribution with COVID-19 Applications
We introduce a flexible lifetime distribution called Burr III-Inverse Weibull (BIII-IW). The new proposed distribution has well-known sub-models. The BIII-IW density function includes exponential, left-skewed, right-skewed and symmetrical shapes. The BIII-IW model’s failure rate can be monotone and non-monotone depending on the parameter values. To show the importance of the BIII-IW distributio...
متن کاملCharacterizations of the Exponential Distribution
In this note, two characterizations of the exponential distribution are established. Theorem 1: Let a > -1, a ~ O. A positive random variable X has an exponential distribution if and only if E[CX-y)aI X > y] is a finite constant for all y ~ O. Theorem 2: Let Xl ,X2, ..• ,Xn be i.i.d. random variables having a continuous distribution FCx), and XCl)'XC2)' ... 'XCn) their order statistics. Let a >...
متن کاملOn the Characterization of the Exponential Distribution by Record Values with a Random Index
We give some characterizations of the exponential distribution based on the distributional properties and the expected values of record values; the index of record values has the geometric distribution.
متن کاملCharacterizations of New Modified Weibull Distribution
Several characterizations of a New Modified Weibull distribution, introduced by Doostmoradi et al. (2014), are presented. These characterizations are based on: (i) truncated moment of a function of the random variable (ii) the hazard function (iii) a single function of the random variable (iv) truncated moment of certain function of the 1st order statistic.
متن کاملOn characterizations based on regression of linear combinations of record values
We characterize the exponential distribution in terms of the regression of a record value with two non-adjacent record values as covariates. We also study characterizations based on the regression of linear combinations of record values. AMS (2000) Subject Classification. 62G30, 62E10.
